Your marble surfaces will look exactly like they did when first installed. No more dull spots from acidic cleaners or water stains that make your bathroom look neglected.
The difference is immediately visible. Steam cleaning removes deep-set grime and bacteria that regular mopping can’t touch, while preserving the natural beauty and protective sealing of your stone.
You get sanitized surfaces without harsh chemicals, which matters when you’re dealing with spaces where your family spends time daily.
We’ve been serving Lloyd Harbor’s historic estates and luxury homes since 1998. We understand the unique challenges of maintaining marble in properties that date back to the Gold Coast era.
Our owner personally oversees every project, which means you’re not dealing with rotating crews who might not understand the value of what they’re working on. We’ve been featured in the New York Times for our restoration work.
Lloyd Harbor’s homes demand expertise that matches their caliber. When you’ve invested over a million dollars in your property, you need contractors who understand that marble restoration isn’t just cleaning—it’s preservation.
First, we assess your marble’s condition and test for any existing damage that could worsen with improper cleaning. Many contractors skip this step and cause expensive problems.
We use controlled-temperature steam that removes dirt and bacteria without causing the thermal expansion that cracks marble. The process includes proper sealer protection and immediate drying to prevent water spots.
After cleaning, we apply protective treatments that keep your marble looking fresh longer. You’ll get specific maintenance instructions that prevent the common mistakes that damage marble between professional cleanings.

Steam cleaning is safe when done correctly by professionals who understand marble’s properties. The key is using controlled temperatures and proper technique.

Our process includes pre-treatment assessment, controlled-temperature application, and immediate protective measures to prevent any damage while achieving deep cleaning that regular methods can’t match.
For shower walls and frequently used marble surfaces, professional steam cleaning every 6-12 months maintains optimal appearance and prevents buildup that becomes harder to remove.
Lloyd Harbor’s humid coastal environment can accelerate soap scum and mineral buildup, especially in shower areas. Regular professional cleaning prevents the etching and staining that occurs when these deposits sit too long.
Between professional cleanings, use only pH-neutral, stone-safe products. Never use vinegar, lemon-based cleaners, or generic bathroom cleaners on marble—they cause permanent etching that requires professional restoration to fix.

The process involves diamond polishing to remove the damaged surface layer, followed by progressive refinishing to restore the original shine. For severe damage, we may need to hone the entire surface and re-polish.

Time is critical with marble staining. Acidic substances start etching the surface within minutes, and organic stains penetrate deeper the longer they sit. We can usually respond within hours for true emergencies.
We also provide guidance over the phone for immediate damage control until we can arrive. Simple steps like blotting (never wiping) and neutralizing acidic spills can prevent minor incidents from becoming expensive restoration projects.
The process typically takes 2-4 hours depending on the area size and condition. We start with a thorough assessment and pre-cleaning to remove surface debris and soap buildup.
